Gibberellic acid (GA) plays an essential role in many plant growth and developmental processes. Overexpression of rice (Oryza sativa L.) HOMEOBOX4 (OsHox4) gene in rice variety IR64 under the control of CaMV 35s promoter caused varying degrees of dwarfism and bushy tillers. Further investigation showed that over-expression of OsHox4 in indica rice induced semi-dwarf by repressing stems cell elongation...
Biofortification of rice (Oryza sativa L.) using a transgenic approach to increase the amount of iron in the grain is proposed as a low-cost, reliable, and sustainable solution to help developing countries combat anemia. In this study, we generated and evaluated a large number of rice or soybean ferritin over-accumulators in rice mega-variety IR64, including marker-free events, by introducing soybean...
Considerable progress has been made on the genetic engineering of rice for improved nutritional content involving micronutrients and carotenoid content. Golden Rice, developed by genetic engineering (Agrobacterium and biolistic transformation) was used in rice breeding for the transfer of high-nutritional value to the local rice cultivars. Simultaneously, commercial Asian indica rice cultivars were...
